OBJECTIVE
To examine the association of distance-near disparity with neurological disease in children with intermittent exotropia.
METHODS
A retrospective analysis was performed of the medical records of all children with intermittent exotropia examined at the Arkansas Children's Hospital between
Four children developed homonymous hemianopia, exotropia with the deviating eye pointing in the direction of the field defect, and a face turn toward the side of the defect following complete third cranial nerve palsy after brain tumor resection, an in utero middle cerebral artery infarction,

A 12-year-old boy with small-angle secondary exotropia and minimal amblyopia experienced photo-induced epilepsy after using the Translid Binocular Interactor, a device designed to treat several of the motor and sensory abnormalities of the eyes alternately with a bright flash at 10 cps. Whether or
Aicardi syndrome is a triad of abnormalities that includes total or partial agenesis of the corpus callosum, chorioretinal lacunae, and infantile spasms. This syndrome was first described in 1965. A female infant with Aicardi syndrome associated with a nasoethmoidal cephalocele is described in this
An 8-year-old revealed the karyotype 46,XX,del(1)(q21 leads to q25). Both parents had normal chromosomes. The patient showed the following findings: underweight at birth, severe growth deficiency (at 7 9/12 years, length, weight and head circumference were at the levels of 24, 18 and 6 months,
Cerebral hemispherectomy is typically used to treat patients with pharmacoresistant epilepsy. Visual-related outcomes are relatively unstudied in this population, aside from the knowledge that patients develop a complete homonymous hemianopia contralateral to the side of the Five children had bilateral optic nerve hypoplasia, absent septum pellucidum, and hypopituitarism. Absence of the septum pellucidum was shown by computed axial tomography. All of the children were first-born. One of the children was definitely not mentally retarded and one at age 7 months was
BACKGROUND
Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome (WHS) multiple congenital anomalies/mental retardation is caused by partial deletion of the short arm of chromosome 4 and can be considered a contiguous gene syndrome, characterized by typical facial appearance, mental retardation, growth delay, and
BACKGROUND
Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome is a rare genetic syndrome caused by a heterozygous deletion on chromosome 4p16.3 and is characterized by a "Greek warrior helmet" facies, hypotonia, developmental delay, seizures, structural central nervous system defects, intrauterine growth restriction,
Rathke cleft cysts are commonly found on autopsy but are seldom symptomatic. Conventional treatment of these lesions consists of transsphenoidal drainage with partial excision of the cyst, and recurrence is rare. Alternatively, the instillation of absolute alcohol into the cyst has been described in
OBJECTIVE
Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome is caused by partial deletion of the short arm of chromosome 4 (4p-). Common features include developmental delay, microcephaly, seizures, craniofacial anomalies, mental retardation, and cardiac defects. This article further describes the ocular manifestations of
Charts of all infantile esotropes who received their primary surgical procedure at the North Carolina Memorial Hospital, between February 1978 and June 1984 were reviewed. Neurologic problems (general and ocular) were identified in 29 of the 47 patients (61.7%) followed a minimum three months (mean
Toriello Carey syndrome is a rare recessive autosomal disease whose clinical manifestations are more evident in males. Some authors report that the general characteristics of this disease are agenesis of the corpus callosum, mental disability, convulsions, atrial septal defect, pulmonary artery
OBJECTIVE
To document ocular outcomes and prevalence of ocular disease in very low birth-weight infants with intraventricular hemorrhage.
METHODS
We retrospectively reviewed the records of all surviving very low birth-weight infants (1,500 g or less) admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit of
